Äitini kysyi ennen joulua, olisiko minulla peittoa, jossa on harmaan sävyjä, sillä hän haluaisi antaa ystävälleen joululahjaksi peiton. Eipä tarvi paljon vihjata peiton tarpeesta kun leikkuupöydällä alkaa tapahtua. Loppujen lopuksi lahjaksi päätyi värikkäämpi, jo valmiina oleva peitto.
Tähän upposi taas mukavasti tilkkulaatikon sisältöä. Etenkin harmaan sävyisiä tilkkuja oli kertynyt aika paljon.
Ison ruudun koko on 3 1/2" x 3 1/2" ( 3" x 3" valmiina)
Pieni ruutu on 2" x 2" (1 1/2" x 1 1/2" valmiina)
Tikkasin tällä kertaa itse, sillä tähän pintaan sopii hyvin ihan perusruudut.
Pari uutta työtä on jo tekeillä, joista toinen on jo hyvällä mallilla. Mukavia ompeluhetkiä kaikille!

I finished this quilt at the end of last year. It's a version of traditional Irish Chain quilt.
My mom asked before Christmas if I have a quilt which she could give as a gift to her friend. I din't need a lot of encouragement to start a new quilt. Her friend has a lot of grey in her home so I thought to use different shades of grey with bright colors. In the end mom didn't end up giving this one but another quilt with green, blue and turquoise colors.
This project was a great scrap buster. I specially got rid of lot of grey scraps.
I decided to do quilting myself this time because simple squares works well with this pattern.
I had already cut a black&white striped binding but I changed my mind and I ended up using this pink one.
They both work well but this time the colorful one took the win.
Sizes of those squares are:
Big 3 1/2" x 3 1/2" (3" x 3" finished)
Small 2" x 2" (1 1/2" x 1 1/2" finished)
This was fun to make and maybe I'll make another one later. Now I'm working on two new quilts, but more on that later.
